“The science has changed since 2003”

This booklet has captured attention around the world.

Donors have paid for over 160,000 copies so far in the US, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden and soon in Germany. Over 60,000 copies have been downloaded from this site (and countless others from copies on other sites.) Plus volunteers have translated it into German, French, Norwegian, Finnish, Swedish, Turkish, Portuguese, Danish, Japanese, Balkan, Spanish, Thai, Czech, Lao and Italian. The second Skeptics Handbook is available in French and Turkish.  (Versions in Dutch, and possibly Italian are on the way). Updates are placed here, along with translations, as well as places to read comments and links to the web-pages where each part of the handbook will be discussed.

I confess this page is not always up to date. For the latest list of all translations : See all posts tagged Translations.

Want Printed Copies?

To arrange for printed copies of The Skeptics Handbooks to be delivered to you, choose :

The printed handbooks are available in English.


To help the debate progress:

1. The seventh draft of the The Skeptics Handbook (1.6 Mb pdf)

  • How to get past the pointless tit-for-tat swapping of ‘evidence’
  • What evidence is, what counts, and what doesn’t
  • Why new results have changed everything
  • How to steer out of details and get to the only point that matters.

2. Vostok ice core graphs are available for the entire last 420,000 years, as well as broken into 50,000 year divisions. Judge the lag for yourself.

3. Coming: resources, cartoons, graphs and information

4. Coming Articles:

  • “The five reasons the AGW story got so out of control”,
  • “How science communicators let us all down.”

Please email us: joanne AT joannenova.com.au (replace the ‘AT’ with ‘@’) if you would like access to copyright-free graphs, cartoons and updates. I’ll be happy to notify you as soon as they are available. (I promise, no spamming).

…There is only one question that matters: ‘will adding more CO2 to the atmosphere make the world much warmer now?’
